Le Tour Traveler's Rest Youth Hostel

Rates: From ¥60 (dorm), ¥220-300
Web: letourshanghai.com
Note: Tucked inside a lane on Jiaozhou Road, this youth hostel has developed into an intimate, charming oasis inside the building of a 1930s towel factory. After a one-year renovation, the 3,000-square-meter hostel was opened in 2008 by Jane Chen, who established her first Le Tour branch on Bailan Road. It features 70 rooms with different shapes. A standard double room is priced at 200 yuan, a twin-bed room 240 yuan and a three-bed room 330 yuan. The place is about backpackers and young people connecting with each other so the public spaces are extremely spacious and warm. The first floor features a cozy library, a reading room, a space for table tennis and snooker. The top-floor restaurant and bar also has a roof-top terrace with a far more personal atmosphere which is hard to find in budget hotel chains. Backpackers choose Le Tour for its central location, warm atmosphere and low budget. Recommended.
